The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Our hardest of hardcore customers told us that even when they've eaten enough calories and gotten enough rest, their muscles sometimes feel "lazy" and incapable of growth. To help them out, we created a new category of supplement, sugar-free Englutarade Reinforcer.

New Englutarade is the world's first anaplerotic muscle drink mix. With glutamine peptides and analogues, including liquid-stable n-acetyl-glutamine, Englutarade was designed to help rapidly and deliciously reinforce anaplerotic pathways inside your muscles. Anaplerosis is required to maintain levels of ATP, the "ultimate energy currency" of every cell in your body, including your muscle cells.

One very important anaplerotic pathway is the Tricarboxylic Acid (TCA) cycle. It is literally at the heart of muscular performance. How important is glutamine to TCA cycle function? Subjects taking 0.125 g of l-glutamine per kilogram (2.2 lb) of body weight (~10 g of l-glutamine or 2 scoops of Englutarade for a 180-lb athlete) increased the level of TCA intermediates during exercise compared to those receiving a placebo (399% vs. 260%) (see reference under Scientific Support, below).
